Where would a person find an NOS grille for an 84 Dodge Ram? Mine is scratched up, oxidized, plastic chrome peeling, etc., pretty worn out. I've done a few internet and eBay searches yet find nothing. Am I going to end up a hopeless romantic!!!???

I got lucky on mine I walked in PnP & there was a freshly restored 84 Prospector hit hard in the passenger bed side
The owner had installed all NOS trim as well as a bunch of other stuff
I had a blast & there was nothing left but the bed cab & frame when I left

I've been buying NOS trim for my RC & my 85 LWB truck for the last 6 years or so & have only seen one grille shell NOS & the guy wanted $750 for it
He has NOS core support,fenders,hood & for $700-1000 each
All on Ebay

There's member here who sells on there that has some truck stuff every now & then NOS
He's proud of it sometimes & sometimes he's on the $$$ as far as price

Diggin' that truck, Wyle E!

I'm in a similar situation on my '84, in my case the grille had been replaced by the original owner with a square tube grille.

I've been searching for a few months, but all of the junkyard stuff seems to be pretty much used up.

I've decided to hunt down a nice aluminum surround and lower reveal panel from an '86-'90, since someone is repopping the headlight surround/marker lights and grilles and they are VERY reasonable.

86-90 89 88 87 DODGE D150 PICKUP GRILLE HEADLIGHT BEZEL

A matching core support can be swapped in, or the headlight buckets can be moved slightly on the old core support to line up with the new headlight locations. I'll probably go ahead and swap the bumper brackets as well, and get a new repop '86-'90 bumper.

Where did you get your visors for the side windows? I see the front door ones every once in a while in the junkyard, but not the ones for the back doors...
